AIM:To investigate the relationship between trace elements and oxidative stress in diabetic diaphragm. METHODS: Contents of copper(Cu), manganese(Mn), zinc(Zn), iron(Fe),cadmium(Cd),chromium(Cr),cobalt(Co),molybdenum(Mo) and lithium(Li) in the alloxan-induced diabetic rat diaphragm muscles were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer, and their superoxide dismutase(SOD) activities and malondiadehyde(MDA) contents were detected. RESULTS: The contents of Cu, Zn, Cr and Li were lower and the Fe and Cd were higher in diabetic rat diaphragm muscles than that of the control group, but there were no significant differences in Mn, Co and Mo, between control and diabetic group. SOD activities decreased significantly and MDA contents increased significantly in diaphragm of diabetic rats as compared with the control group.In addition,in diabetic rats diaphragm, there was a positive correlation between Zn and SOD, and negative correlation between Zn and MDA, and Cd and SOD. CONCLUSION: Changes of the contents of Cu, Zn, Fe, Cd, Cr, Li and the increase of oxidative stress in diaphragm were found in the early diabetes, and Zn, Cd play an importment role in oxidative stress of diabetic diaphragm.

In view of the current conditions and reasons about the reform of medical and health system in China,the paper expounds the feasibility of authorized operation with state-owned assets of public hospital and the concrete operational pattern from the angle of hospital operational mechanism, which proposes a new idea about how to effectively solve the contradiction between the limited investment on state-owned health resources and the growing demands on medical health.

Objective To construct pSUPER-SVV vector and obtain its expression in HeLa cells,in order to interfere the expression of survivin.Methods Oligonucleotide sequences specific for survivin were designed for RNA interference(RNAi),after annealed they were ligated to pSUPER.basic vector.After sequencing,the vector of pSUPER-SVV was transfected into HeLa cells by LipofectAmine.The expression of survivin was detected by RT-PCR and FCM.Results The RNAi expression vector of survivin was constructed successfully,which depressed the expression of survivin efficiently.Survivin was significantly depressed on the level of mRNA in HeLa cells compared with the control groups(P

microRNA (miRNA) is a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs,they play an important role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression through combining the target mRNA that the target protein would not synthesis.The present studies have found that miRNA is involved in many kinds of physiological processes,as well as the pathological processes.The abnormal expression of miRNA in many diseases can be used in diagnosis,prognosis and treatment monitoring.But all of these studies depend on an ideal detection method of miRNA.A lot of detection methods of miRNA expression developed from qualitative analysis to quantitative analysis step by step and from single miRNA detection to high throughput screening in recent years.Various detection methods are improved constantly,the specificity and sensitivity has been improved at the same time,detection procedure become simple and practicable,detection time shorten considerably and cost also reduced ceaselessly,which make the application of miRNA in clinical possible.This review highlights the latest research progress of the common detection methods of miRNA.

Exosomes are small (30 -100 nm) membrane vesicles secreted by various cell types , they mediate cell-to-cell communication by transferring mRNAs , miRNAs, and proteins.As a hotspot in the research of oncology , exosomes have potential values in the research of development , diagnosis and treatment of cancer. This paper briefly reviews the relationship between breast cancer microenvironment , drug resistance and exosomes and its progress in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment , in order to propose new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies .

AIM: The pathological changes in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in diabetic rat lung were investigated.METHODS: Using immunohistochemical method and imaging analysis, the changes in iNOS and VIP were observed in normal and diabetic rat lung. RESULTS: In diabetic rats, the iNOS positive or weak positive staining was localized in epithelial cells of bronchi, epithelial cells of alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and arteries, but negative in endothelial cells of vein and capillary. Image analysis showed the area, the integral absorbance(IA) and relative contents of iNOS were significant lower than that of control (P

Objective To study the effect of Chinese traditional medicines on human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts in vitro,and determine their effective dosage.Methods Traditional Chinese medicines were cultured with human hypertrophic scar fibrob lasts(Fb)and normal dermal Fb,MTT colorimetr ic assay and cell growth curve were used to compare the influence of ethanol extracts fromChinese tradi tional medicines on the Fb growth activity and growth cycle.Results(1)Chinese gall markedly inhibited the proliferation of Fb derived from hyp ertrophic scar and normal skin,and was more effective on the former in a dose-dependent m anner(0～400?g /mL)during 72h of treatment.(2)The half inhibition concentration o f Chinese gall ethanol extract was 100?g /mL.The morphology of Fb did not change when its concentration was below 400?g /mL,as compared to colchicine(

AIM: To evaluate the changes of diaphragm contractile properties and morphologic features in experimental diabetic rats. 糤THZ]METHODS: METHODS: Diaphragm contractility was assessed by twitch kinetics, maximal tetanic force (P 0) , tension-frequency relationship and fatigue index (FI) in vitro diaphragm strip preparations of 4th week diabetic Wistar rats, and compared with that of the control group. The structure of diaphragm was analysed in diabetic rats and control with Hematoxyline and eosin staining, Heidenhain staining and enzymatic histochemistry. RESULTS: The twitch (Pt), contraction time (CT), half relaxation time (RT 1/2 ) and FI decreased significantly in diabetic group as compared with the control group. There was no difference in Po between the two groups. The tension of diabetic diaphragm at frequencies of 25,50,75,100 and 125 Hz was significantly decreased compared with that of the normal rats. After diaphragm bundles were subjected to fatiguing stimulations and incubated with aminophylline at 250 mg/L for 30 minutes, the tension of diabetic diaphragm decreased remarkably at both high and low frequencies in comparison with that of the normal rats. In addition, the activity and optical density of ?-phosphoglycerol dehydrogenase in diaphragm from diabetic rats were significantly lower than that from control rats ( P
